Re: OctaneRender™ 2021.1 XB3 [current 2021.1]

BUG: It appears the light pass IDs are broken. If I set up a scene with several lights, each with it's own light pass ID and set up light AOV's then only the sun and environment are in their correct AOV's. All the other lights show up in the lightPass1 AOV and any other lightPass AOV's are empty ...

Re: 6EQUJ5 - Short Film

That was good. I did not really see the VFX shots (other than the aleiN). I wondered how you had good good video of an IBM 1403 (i used to fix them) :) did not suspect it was CG. Well done.
Thanks!

I would've loved to have have shot the IBM 1403 for real if I could have found one here in New ...

Re: 6EQUJ5 - Short Film

Thanks JimStar, high praise indeed! I do work with many very talented artists right now so in that way I am at least amongst some of the best artists in the country. Wish I had more time to work with Octane though.

Re: 6EQUJ5 - Short Film

Thanks!

And here are some VFX breakdowns. Unfortunately not as detailed as I'd like but I just don't have the time or capability to do more right now. I built this out of some show reel breakdowns I already had and some final shots from the film. Hopefully it's better than nothing.

6EQUJ5 - Short Film

Around a year ago I finished my first short film which I have just released online. It has Octane rendered VFX throughout so thought I'd post a link here.

All CG in the film was rendered with Octane render for Maya, apart from the solar system graphic for which I just used Maya Software renderer ...

Re: Shlick Phase Function Equivalent in Maya

The phase function only controls the direction of scatter with regards to the light source, it's not a control to direct scatter in an arbitrary direction.

I don't have access to Octane right now and can't remember what values the setting has in standalone or Maya but if for example the control ...

Re: background color in render not black

Hi,

Do you have an octane environment node in your scene? If not create one, make sure it is set to texture environment type and set the texture swatch to black.

Re: How to reduce Mesh Loading Time in Maya?

It's in the render settings. Animation mode or something similar. Sorry don't have access to Octane right now and can't remember the attr name for certain.

Re: Render window not same as viewport

Hi,
Try triangulating your mesh in Maya before rendering. Octane doesn't deal with N-gons and concave faces well
